    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit a first control message indicating a static or dynamic capability of the UE to support hybrid beamforming and adaptive beam weights-based analog beamforming. The UE may receive a second control message indicating a first set of reference signal resources associated with the hybrid beamforming and a second set of reference signal resources associated with the adaptive beam weights-based analog beamforming. The UE may transmit a first set of reference signals via the first set of reference signal resources and a second set of reference signals via the second set of reference signal resources and, receive, in response, a third control message indicating a rank indicator associated with the hybrid beamforming or the adaptive beam weights-based analog beamforming.

    Abstract: Techniques are provided for enabling user equipment (UE) positioning based on angle estimation in millimeter wave (mmW) bands. An example method for determining a location of a mobile device includes transmitting array gain information to a network entity, the array gain information including beam pattern information based at least in part on a sub-band and a state of the mobile device, receiving one or more reference signals in one or more sub-bands, wherein a receive beam for each of the one or more reference signals is based at least in part on the sub-band the one or more reference signals are being received in, and on a current state of the mobile device, determining measurement values based on the one or more reference signals, and determining the location of the mobile device based at least in part on the measurement values.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first wireless device may be configured to transmit, to a second wireless device, one or more orbital angular momentum (OAM) signals in accordance with a set of radial codeword sequences associated with a polynomial radial codeword configuration, where the one or more OAM signals are transmitted based on a first value of a polynomial term for the polynomial radial codeword configuration. The first wireless device may receive, from the second wireless device on the one or more OAM signals, a feedback message indicating a second value of the polynomial term. The first wireless device may then transmit, to the second wireless device, one or more additional OAM signals in accordance with the set of radial codeword sequences and based on the second value for the polynomial term.

    Abstract: The described techniques provide for the identification and utilization of different power consumption categories by a user equipment (UE) in wireless communications system. A power consumption category may correspond to a power consumption level (e.g., a powered circuitry configuration) of the UE. For example, a power consumption category may configure an analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) resolution, a digital-to-analog conversion (DAC) resolution, a number of antennas, etc., that a UE may employ for communications. In some examples, a UE may report capability information to a base station, and the base station may use the information to explicitly or implicitly (e.g., via conveying thresholds or conditions to the UE for power consumption category switching or power consumption category selection) configure the UE with various power consumption categories. As such, the power consumption categories may be used by the base station and UE, in some scenarios, for reducing power consumption.

    Abstract: An assisting network device receives an incoming signal from a transmitting device. The assisting network device forwards the incoming signal to a receiving device in a beam direction based on a frequency of the incoming signal. A method of wireless communication by a first wireless device includes determining an indication of a frequency domain beam sweeping configuration of an assisting network device. The method communicates a signal with a second wireless device via the assisting network device in a beam direction based on a frequency of the signal. A method of wireless communication by a controlling entity determines a frequency domain beam sweeping configuration of an assisting network device. The method indicates the frequency domain beam sweeping configuration to a first wireless device, via the assisting network device, for communication with a second wireless device in a beam direction based on a frequency of an incoming signal.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. When operating in a high-pathloss mode, wireless devices in a network may transmit or receive downlink control information (DCI) that schedules a transmission time interval (TTI) for a physical shared channel (such as a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) or a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH)). A wireless device may determine one or more intervals that correspond to a periodic signal that collides with portions of the TTI. Based on the identified intervals, the wireless device may communicate over the physical shared channel during the TTI. In such cases, the TTI may overlap in time with the one or more intervals to allow communication of the periodic signal during the portions of the TTI. For instance, a periodic signal may be transmitted or received during each of the one or more intervals.
